4 servings
For the salmon
- 4 salmon fillets (6 oz each), skin-on
- 2 tbsp avocado oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp fresh rosemary, finely chopped
- 1 tbsp fresh thyme leaves
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
Ingredient noteDried smoked paprika can sometimes contain mold toxins, but the small amount in this recipe—about 1/4 teaspoon per serving—is likely tolerated by many. When possible, use a recently purchased organic spice and store it tightly closed in a cool, dry place. If you prefer to always avoid smoked paprika, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- ½ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp black pepper
Ingredient noteDried black pepper can sometimes contain mold toxins, but the small amount in this recipe—about a pinch per serving—is likely tolerated by many. When possible, use a recently purchased organic spice and store it tightly closed in a cool, dry place. If you prefer to always avoid black pepper, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
For the avocado salsa
- 2 ripe avocados, diced
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, quartered
- ¼ cup red onion, finely diced
- ¼ cup fresh cilantro, roughly chopped
- 2 tbsp fresh lime juice (about 1 lime)
- 1 tbsp avocado oil
- ¼ tsp salt
- 1 jalapeño, seeded and finely diced (optional)
Ingredient noteThe Mold Detox diet limits chili peppers because they can pick up mold once they are dried and stored, but the peppers on this line are used fresh, not dried, so they are likely tolerated by many. If you prefer to always avoid fresh chili peppers, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
For serving
- lime wedges, for serving (optional)
